Hornady ammo is showing up in the brick & mortar retailers. Midwayusa notifications piped up yesterday with Starline 6ARC brass. Things are looking up in my opinion.
I used a Rainer Arms 22” for mine- I wished I’d of went with the 20” BA Hanson. Reasons- 1. Rainer 22” is an .875” at the gas block instead of a .750”. 2. Gas tube length on the 20” is Rifle Length- on the 22” it is Rifle +2. 3. Weight- the 22” is About ~ 3/4 lb. heavier than a 20” .750”@ the...
I’m shooting 150ELDXs out of a 22” 7mm-08 @ 2800-2815. I just don’t see stepping to a 162ELDX & even considering a modified 7mm-08 case,( SAW, or the other one above), I don’t see the modifications being worth the hassle. I’d like for it to be but I just don’t see it being worth it personally.
That is nice: I was unaware of that length being typical as I’ve ready repeatedly that ~4.00” was required. I just don’t see Hornady supporting the Edge: certainly not getting it SAAMI approved. I do see them supporting a 338 PRC. I think it will lend to more .338 bullet & barrel options...
I’ve never handled an Edge, but I understand a 4” Wyatt’s box is needed. Doesn’t this make it more of a Custom than something that would stay at or under 3.800”?
I see it as being to the 338 class what the 7PRC is to the 7mm class. A better .338 that functions well in a standard Magnum action. It doesn’t do Lapua or Norma Magnum, but it also doesn’t require a special action or extra large bolt face. A modern 338 Win Mag with higher BC bullets. With...
This is hypothetical since I have not seen a reamer print that Hornady used for their 338 however, This is in the realm of what others have done with the Campfire & 375/338 previously.
Exactly. I believe it would be akin to a modern .340 Weatherby. Hornady’s reloading manual calls for the Weatherby pushing the 250s to around 2900fps. I surmise the 265-270s would be around 2800-2825. ~85 grains of powder. Seems like a logical offering to me.
According to their podcasts, The Hornady bunch did the 375 Ruger based 338 along with the 300 years before they rolled out the 300 variant. I hear you on the .585 bolt face but I don’t want it. I like the 375 Ruger case & want a 338 variant. I understand the increases when going to the .585”...
I see the 300 PRC is 3.700”. Holding that it would be an improved 338 Win Mag with a lot better ballistics. I don’t want to deal with the .585” bolt face but I do have a AG new stock, a Wyatt’s box, & a Remington 700 patterned action ready for this very chambering. I’ve got new ADG brass on...
Is the CDG the one to go with for a true change barrel rifle? Is there anything that one really gives up to go with the CDG over say a 1. Terminus Zeus Long Action with the Quick change feature. 2. Big Horn TL-3 3. Impact 757 4. Defiance ANTI action with set screw. Looking at doing 2 long...
